First decide on a point value. Here's why: Dayton takes each hole as a bet. You hit your drive and the two to the left play the two to the right. Every hole determines the 2 man teams for that hole. Golf outing betting games You use the flag stick to sight which two are playing the other two. If it gets difficult to determine left and right sight from the flag stick back to the tee box.
You play the hole medal, counting individual strokes. Then you use the formula of putting the two person team's score together so that the low score comes first if you are par or better, but if you don't have a par, the high score goes first. Example: Par is 4. One team scores a 4 and a 6, the other team has a 5 and a 6. Concatenating the scores gives a 46 and a 65 remember the low score comes first if you have a par or better.
You substract the difference and that is the points for each member of the team. So each member of the 46 team gets 19 points and each member of the 65 team gets points. You play all eighteen holes and add the point totals for each person, and because you wind up being paired with a different person on any given hole, the totals are all different but should add to zero.
Dayton adds great pressure on those 3 foot putts that could make a 65 turn into a 46 if you make it. Some play where the maximum high score is limited to a double bogey -- to keep it a bit more friendly. It is an exciting format and mixes people up well for a fun afternoon, and by choosing the point value you can keep the game from getting "out of hand.
MiniMoe April 10, April 10, What you call dayton we call 1,2,3,4. Each hole partners change based on where tee shots end up. From left to right, first hole, 1,3 and 2,4 are partners. Second hole, 1,4 and 2,3 are partners. We also take turns and call what numbers are partners each hole, so sometimes 1,2 and 3,4 can be partners on several holes.
We play. Par skins pay 2. Add another twist So if they had a 46 and we won with a birdie, their score becomes It's a fun, mean game. LBlack14 April 10, Lowest accumulative score on the par 3's.

Great group game. April 13, I too take on the dubious task of running a weekend trip for 24 guys, and am looking for some new ideas for gaming this this year.

In years past we have done the usual: skins, and greenies, for each round as well as a "Calloway Low Total" for the 3 regular rounds for a tourney winner.
To figure the Calloway score you need a chart that can easily be found on the internet, but it is a lot of work calulating 24 scores for each round!!. It is a very fair way to play when you have a wide range of handicappers, as our group does.
The Calloway scoring levels the playing field right out, but as I said, it is a lot of work to re-calc all the scores. When I play, I like to incorporate a game of Poker into my round. It's an easy game to play on the course and keeps everyone in the foresome in the game.
Best 5 card poker hand at the end of the round wins the pot. You need a deck of playing cards. You win a card by doing any or all of the following on each par 3: Closest To The Pin Least amount of putts - In the case of a tie there is no card awarded.

In this game you play two on two, and there are two points up for grabs on every hole. As is implied in the name, one point goes to the team with the individual with the best score. The other goes to the team with the best aggregate score for the duo. Every score matters in some capacity. You can add another dimension to the game by making birdies and eagles worth additional points.
I like to play birdies are worth two extra points. The 9-point game was created for threesomes. On every hole, there are 9 points available to be won. If all three players tie, each player gets 3 points, and every other possible outcome awards a different number of points to each player. The total points always equaling 9. The rest of the results and the corresponding points are in the grid below.
At the end of the round add up all the points to see who won. Play for pride or make each point worth a certain nominal value a quarter, dollar or Benjamin to be paid out at the 19 th hole. One final wrinkle to the game occurs when one player beats both competitors by two shots or more on a hole i.

Wagers need to be placed to play, but you can always make the amount very small. Any group with three or more players can play. Flip a tee to decide who starts the round as the banker. The banker plays an individual match with each person in the group on that specific hole. They start by picking the max initial value to be played for.

Instead points are awarded for firsts: first player to reach the green, player closest to the hole, first player to putt out - and any others you'd like to include.
Great fun and a brilliant way of including everyone in the day. As well as your main event have a few side bets to keep interest up. Decide your own value for units and don't get carried away.

If the player fails to do this it is a foozle and is a loss of a unit. If no-one hits the green then the oozles can accumulate on subsequent par 3s. One-off oozles can also be played for gorillas who drive par 4s. Holing out from off the green without using your putter. Golden ferrets are for holing out from a bunker and count double.
No prizes for guessing this - just put a premium on this depending on handicaps and the course's difficulty. Dr Doolittle comprises various accumulators, such as Snakes for three-putting. Each time someone three-putts, this adds 1 unit to the value of the snake. The last person to three-putt is deemed to be holding the snake and pays out the total value to all others in the group.
You can combine this with other accumulators for various misdemeanors using the same principle: Camels for going in a bunker, Fish for hitting into water, Bears for hitting trees, Rabbits for going in the gorse or bushes and Grouse for landing in the heather. Keep the monetary value of each unit low as they will mount up quite quickly!. When playing from off the green, a player shouts 'Flap' between hitting the ball and its first bounce.
The player then has to hole out with the next shot to gain a unit. Failure to do so loses a unit. If a player calls a flap, opponents may shot 'double' before the ball makes its first bounce to double the win or loss. Each player is allowed to move the ball without penalty by kicking it. Specify a number of Portuguese Caddies allowed per person per round.

However you must use your opening tee shot and you cannot replay a shot twice. Everyone then plays off scratch and the lowest score on each hole wins.
A metoo is where you are allowed to swap your shot for someone else's in your group at any hole, be it a drive, iron shot or putt. Move your ball to where the other shot finished and you both play the next shot from there. You may use your metoo to join someone in holing out. Agree the number of metoos among you depending on your handicap.
Whoever has the worst score on each hole has to wear a designated hat for the following hole. The sillier the headgear the better.
